> This is the followup to DERBY-1823 that Francois Orsini suggested.
> I've been experimenting and reading the Developer's Guide section on SQL
> authorization (User authorizations, cdevcsecure36595).
> It appears that the only use of SQL authorization mode is to restrict user
> access, not to expand it.
> For example, if you set the default connection mode to noAccess, a user with
> fullAccess can't grant any privileges to a user with noAccess. And presumably
> if the default connection mode is readOnlyAccess, a user with fullAccess
> can't grant any privileges beyond SELECT, which the user has anyway.
> Only if the default connection mode is fullAccess is SQL authorization mode
> meaningful. That means that a fullAccess user can use GRANT to restrict
> another user's privileges on a particular database that the user owns.
> I'm running into a problem at the end, though. At the beginning of the
> program, as nobody in particular, I was able to create several users, some of
> them with full access. But at the end of the program, it seems that even a
> user with full access isn't allowed to turn off those database properties:
> Message: User 'MARY' does not have execute permission on PROCEDURE
> 'SYSCS_UTIL'.'SYSCS_SET_DATABASE_PROPERTY'.
> This seems a bit extreme. I know that with SQL authorization on, "the ability
> to read from or write to database objects is further restricted to the owner
> of the database objects." But the ability to execute built-in system
> procedures? Can I log in as SYSCS_UTIL? How?
> I realize that having access to SYSCS_SET_DATABASE_PROPERTY would allow me to
> in effect delete myself -- but that's essentially what I do at the end of the
> program that sets derby.connection.requireAuthentication but not
> derby.database.sqlAuthorization.
> The documentation does say that once you have turned on SQL authorization,
> you can't turn it off. But it doesn't say that you can't turn anything else
> off, either!
> I'll attach the program I've been using. Most of the stacktraces are
> expected, but I'm stumped by that last one.
